"Tate she wasn't even serious with you. She didn't use her shadows once on you. I promise you she's stronger than what she just showed you." Everett laid it out plainly for Tate. Everett then turned to the crowd. "Tate is still the strongest, under me, in this pack. Do not make the mistake of thinking he isn't. It just so happens this woman here is on another level than most. She did beat 3 alphas within 10 minutes." If he didn't address the pack they would believe Tate to be weak. That's not a good thing as it could throw things off balance for them. The pack all looked at me in disbelief. "Alpha, there's no way." One of them retorted. He was tall and lanky, and lacked muscles of any sort."Zerena." He motioned for me to show them an example of my power and I smiled. I used my new strength and training to control all the shadows in the room at once. I contorted everyone's shadows to wrap around their bodies, snaking up and around their necks. No one could move as I began to squeez

Barlowe. I kept repeating the name until my body ran cold. 'His name is Zion Barlowe' Kiran's voice ran through my head. No, nope, Nuh uh. There's just no fucking way. No, I refuse to believe that of all the people on this planet I managed to somehow kidnap Kiran's father and bring him to this hell. There's no way. He can't be. I swallowed hard as the realization was hitting my gut with a fury of guilt. "Zion, do you have a son?" I asked him, wanting to be sure. "I do. Although I don't know where he is now. We don't talk. I haven't been in his life for the past few years." He hung his head in shame. Fuck me, man. I pinched the bridge of my nose, closing my eyes for this next part. Will it ease my guilt if I don't look at him when he answers my question?"Is his name Kiran, by chance?" I peeked at his face as he stayed silent a while longer. "You can't kidnap him too. He doesn't even know this world exists. He isn't a phoenix like me. Leave him alone." Zion now stared at me the

Kellan sat back down, looking at me all kinds of confused. He furrowed his brows meeting my eyes with his electric blue ones. He had very beautiful eyes, but I could never stare at them for long. Sirens hold most of their power in their eyes, and their songs. Stare in his eyes too long and he could snare me in his siren spell. "Do you remember the pearl mission? The one Emerson got in trouble for?" They all nodded, and I realized that the only person that knows about Kiran is Percy. I'm sharing my truth to them all right now. "Do you remember the gas station we went to after?" "Yeah, the one we got shot in." Tally added."Yeah that one." "Yeah I remember." Kellan said, uncertain where I was going with this. "Do you remember the guy behind the register?""Not really, didn't he run away?" Kellan's brows were so furrowed they were almost meeting in the center of his face. "He didn't run away, I hid him. He's my intertwined, my destined one, my mate. Whatever you want to call it he'

Kiran's P.O.V.A phoenix. I'm a fucking Phoenix. My dad is a fucking Phoenix, the rarest of supernatural and instead of being elated by the news, I'm feeling the need to scream and punch. My dad is stuck with that sadistic psychopath of a scientist that Zerena is trapped with as well. She took my dad there. She imprisoned him to that hell alongside her. She could have pretended to fail the mission or she could have hidden my dad. She could have even tried to kill Alester, but instead she's sitting and waiting because he may have experimented on himself. So what if he did? I am sure Zerena could take him. He's not some all powerful being. He's not a fucking god. I punched the wall, my fist stuck inside it now as the drywall caved around it. I grunted in further frustration as I pulled my hand out of the wreckage. What has Alester been doing to my dad? What is he doing to him now? Yeah my dad may have left me without a word but no one deserves the sick twisted things that Alester doe

Zerena's P.O.V."I fu.cking knew it! Look right here." I held the phone to Everett's face, showing him the picture of the file I was reading. "Once he saw how the healing ability affected each of us, he injected himself with it. He logs his healing process here. It seems he heals better than even I. That son of b*tch. He not only injects himself with things that have worked from his experiments, making them even better before giving it to himself." I let my forehead hit the table in frustration, rolling it against the polished cold wood. So I can't kill him, but perhaps I can decommission him the way he threatens to do to us. I'd love to keep his head in a jar and let him watch me live a happy life without his cruelty. "We expected that. We hoped that wasn't the case, but we expected it. We'll just imprison him. We can hand him off to the council or even the shadow weaver infantry you told us about." Everett tried to comfort me. "No, I don't really trust those elders. I plan on bur

"Zerena, come quickly!" I heard Tate's excited voice from inside the convenience store. I pushed away from Jason but he didn't let go. Instead he picked me up and threw me over his shoulder. "I'll look first then I'll let you see if it's okay to look." He bossed like I would listen. "Let me? fu.ck off, you don't get to tell me what to do. I don't need your permission to look. If I want to look then I will look." I said firmly, pushing against his shoulder so I could get down. He didn't let go, instead he entered the convenience store with me slung over his shoulder. I was on the verge of using my shadows to force him to let me go when he suddenly put me down and turned me around. I watched as Kiran's body burned brightly until it was nothing but ash and then within seconds Kiran emerged from the ashes with a large gasp of air. I ran to him with tears in my eyes, tackling him by accident with the force of my hug. "Don't do that to me again." I lightly scolded him, with my face pres

"What is that?" Tally asked, pointing to my hand where the mark laid. "Did you get a tattoo?" "No, it's not a tattoo. It's how shadow weavers mark their intertwined. I saw Kiran this evening and after some shi.t went down, I marked him." I wasn't going to get into details with them. They didn't need to know everything. "That's really amazing, Zerena." Emerson smiled warmly at me. I think he really was happy for me. "Emerson, we need to tell you something." I looked at Percy and he nodded, finally giving me the okay. "You were sold by bounty seekers to Alester. They took you from your family and it took your brother years to figure out where you were. He's been trying to get to you for the past 10 years." I started. Emerson's face mixed with a million emotions, serious, sad, shocked, paled, hardened. His expressions changed all at once; it was hard to keep up. "Who is my brother?" He clutched onto the table so hard it started to crack under his grip. "Alpha Everett." Percy answer

The next two hours were spent doing shadow exercises. Sebastian had my shadows extend out and attack him as he timed them. I never landed a blow on him as his shadow was too fast, and would quickly block my own. He told me he would teach me how to do that with my own shadows tomorrow when he trains me. Apparently Al is gearing up to help in the fight with Alester and won't be available the next few days. "You're free to go. I look forward to seeing how quickly you improve these next few days. We look forward to having you back in the colony." "What are you talking about?" I furrowed my brows at him. "When you're free of Alester we expect you to come back to the colonies. You will be an elder in training for the colony in the west." He said it so simply, like his words didn't just irritate the absolute shi.t out of me. "No, I'm not. I am not living in your colony." I stared him straight in the eyes. His brows furrowed for half a second before he composed his face again. "You don't
